To those who missed the credits in Spinning Boris : read the original story as filed by Moscow correspondent Michael Kramer in Time magazine's issue dated July 15, 1996. This is no fiction but documented fact and that is why the scenario rings true. End of speculative discussion.
There is a french saying, "la réalité dépasse la fiction", truth beats fiction. Think about it. The reason why Spinning Boris rings so true, including seemingly trivial details, is that things can happen this way - I know from personal experience with both politics and Eastern Europe. Nobody would be foolish enough to present this movie as a documentary (and by the way, why wait until Yeltsin was completely out of the picture ?), but insiders will wink at each other. Remember Primary Colors - and think about it.
